Earlier this week, another understandable and welcome development. 🇺🇦💙💛🇺🇳

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, UNESCO, is a specialized agency of the UN aimed at promoting world peace and security through international cooperation in education, arts, science and culture.

#Repost @weareukraine.info with @use.repost . . . For the first time in history, Russia was not elected to the UNESCO Executive Board, as stated by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

Zelenskyy emphasized that Russia’s absence from the board marks the end of its influence, attributing this development to the “inappropriate role of Russian terrorists in significant international bodies.”

The UNESCO Executive Board, a crucial component overseeing the organization’s budget and program activities, is one of its three key bodies alongside the General Conference and the Secretariat.

The historical development of CALL can be examined in three different stages:

·         Behavioristic CALL

·         Communicative CALL

·         Integrative CALL.

 In Behavioristic CALL, Skinner's operant conditioning is dominant. Learning is seen as a process which occurs through practice. Learning is not interactive and based upon computer-learning interaction. Repetition is crucial. Despite its disadvantages, one point is remarkably important. In Behavioristic CALL, students have the chance of studying at their own paces.

 In Communicative CALL, the major point is teaching students to create utterances not simply memorize them. Generally, students give more original answers because questions are more flexible. Communicative CALL gives three different roles to the computer:

·         The Computer as a tutor

·         The Computer as a stimulus

·         The Computer as a tool.

  In Integrative CALL, there are two key factors:

·         Multimedia

·         Electronic Communication.

The content is divided into four sections (listening, speaking, writing, and reading) and Integrative CALL gives more importance to the content rather than learning approaches. Also, students have the opportunity of making their own way of learning.
